516 FXUS64 KLIX 150832 AFDLIX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New Orleans LA 332 AM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, AVIATION, MARINE... .SHORT TERM... (Today through Monday) Issued at 257 AM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Today and Monday does not look much different than yesterday. Highs for today and Monday have been lowered by a few degrees as cloud cover and rain cooled air should be capable of holding temps in the upper 80s with a few 90s around today. This same process has been done for Monday as well. Higher than normal precip numbers continue through Monday with a low but credible chance of severe storms being produced. The main issue with any of these storms will be heavy rainfall which can produce upwards of 1 to 1.5" totals per hour. This can cause temporary flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas. && .LONG TERM... (Monday night through Saturday) Issued at 257 AM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Tuesday through Thursday should be high rain prob days as we will become the battle ground for a southerly flow environment and NW flow moving systems into the area with the deep moisture availability. Any given day can give an isolated heavy rain and/or severe storm but the thinking is we will begin to slowly take these rain chances lower by the end of the week or over the weekend. It would be more of a normal distribution of around 30-40% so there will remain a good opportunity for all locations to get a sh/ts. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 257 AM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Cigs will mainly be VFR outside TSRA which will lower these levels temporarily when they occur. MCB could see IFR cigs again late tonight but this will lift shortly after sunrise. && .MARINE... Issued at 257 AM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Southerly winds at 15kt or less is expected throughout this fcast as we remain in a very typical summer pattern with respect to the northern gulf waters. There is a good chance of sh/ts each day and night. Some of these could become strong causing winds to shift and rise abruptly. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
